Being a mom has been the greatest blessing--and challenge!--of my life thus far. Welcome to my merry musings on being Mommy, Mom, and Mama to five beautiful children, given to me by God through the miracles of adoption and birth. Stay as long as you like, and come back often!

Today she gave me my first kiss...ever...almost two years after we became mother and daughter. It came as many of her "firsts" have...suddenly, unexpectedly, blink and you miss it. It gave me hope for other "firsts" we have yet to see and hear. Interestingly, she kissed my cheek while holding the little white dress her foster mother had her dressed in the day she became ours forever. Makes me wonder what she remembers...hopefully someday she will be able to tell me...another "first". But today, she gave me my first kiss.
